@_elena @pluralistic Watched it also yesterday. Very good talk 😊 PS: You're not alone. I'm sitting at home in front of the PC and coding on #InfinitoNexus. But going to the #39c3 would had distracted me to much from finishing #InfinitoNexus ;D

Great talk by @pluralistic, nice utopic viewpoint. He forgot the right to repair initiative.

@_elena for the context - and his predictions - also watch the 28c3 session on the "upcoming war against general purpose computers" from @pluralistic media.ccc.de/v/28c3-4848-en-th… - or listen to them, the slides (at least from this year) don't really matter.
The coming war on general computation

Elena,

You gave one or two presentations recently, are there recordings of these presentations?

@MichelPatrice not the one in Bologna (I don’t think) but definitely Fedi Day Berlin at CBase and JDLL in May. I can look up links soon (I’m with family and on the road for the rest of the week) 😅

Same! Cheerleading is something we *can* do though :)

I watched the start of Cory's but didn't have time and am excited to continue, but did watch all of Katika Kühnreich's (didn't know her, the title got me):

"All Sorted by Machines of Loving Grace? "AI", Cybernetics, and Fascism and how to Intervene"

which was incredibly good, link here:

https://app.media.ccc.de/v/39c3-all-sorted-by-machines-of-loving-grace-ai-cybernetics-and-fascism-and-how-to-intervene#t=121

And it also linked to the Institute of Networked Cultures as she works for them in some capacity, which I was amazed I hadn't heard of! They've some ridiculously good writing, e.g.

https://networkcultures.org/longform/2025/12/10/bedroom-agency-neets/ (caution, flashing images on the header of this article, it is only on the header and not lower down).

I'm right now at 46:00. I was just watching a few minutes but I got hooked by this powerful presentation.

I'm going to bed, it is 4 in the morning here. I just watched a few minutes while waking up to take a glass of water and I have been awake for an hour now.

I'm watching the rest of it tomorrow.

Hi @kevinveenbirkenbach what you are doing sounds like a very well curated set of webapps offered as a service! Did you know of #CoopCloud the cooperative cloud community that collectively builds and maintains a "configuration commons" for precisely that? https://coopcloud.tech

@Wtebbens @_elena @pluralistic @coopcloud Seems interesting. But I don't see any current updates. Anyhow if you'd like to chat. I'm every time glad to receive tipps 😊
https://s.infinito.nexus/meet

Yes. #InfinitoNexus sets up the whole server with a #SSO for all apps, encryption, certificate and domain management. One script to to rule them all. I think my solution is the most advanced #OpenSource solution in this field.

...just need to somehow make money with it now... Need to pay my bills ;D

@kevinveenbirkenbach @Wtebbens @_elena @pluralistic @coopcloud co-op cloud is constantly worked on and has an active community, we even had a meetup at 39C3.
Regarding a one script for all solution, you could look at kollicloud from Local-IT. It is built upon coop cloud, preselected set of apps with SSO. https://git.local-it.org/local-it/kollicloud
(The website is only available in English.)

Hi @kevinveenbirkenbach
Checking out your code repo I noticed that your parts of the software are not open source. You prohibit commercial usage. I understand that you are seeking a way to make money, logically. But have you thought through a proper business model?

If you want, I could conduct a brief Q&A with you to think through the five pillars. We could do that here in the Fedi.

@Wtebbens @_elena @pluralistic @coopcloud

Sounds great 😊

Want to publish it under AGPL3. I will do a kickstarter campaign -> Need capital to setup a proper company and pay my bills.

Short: Marketplace for automatic deployment to the server of your choice.

B2C: ~ (1 € * account * apps) / month
B2B: B2C + provision for Enterprise Editions

Additional: Provision for hosting & domain.

Focus and promote #FOSS but proprietary support as well.

@kevinveenbirkenbach @_elena @pluralistic @coopcloud Maybe it'd be good that your solution appear in the comparison page: docs.coopcloud.tech/intro/comparisons/#doing-it-manually-old-school

In any case, the CoopCloud community has a few active matrix rooms and an online meeting every Thursday - the "kiteflying hour". Feel welcome to join. It is a kind of cooperative federation of coop cloud providers, really good people to connect with.

@Wtebbens @_elena @pluralistic

Thanks a lot. It seems like @cloudron, @coopcloud and @yunohost are a serious alternative. Wasn't aware of them yet 😉

Added them to my market overview graphic :)

https://s.infinito.nexus/marketmap

Do you by any chance know the current matrix channel of @coopcloud ?

I couldn't find !xSMwGbdVehScXcIFwS:autonomic.zone :(
